Programs to automatically download album covers and insert them in to ID3 tags? [closed]

Let us assume that I have a perfectly tagged MP3 collection - at the very least Artist and Album Name are all intact. The only lacking thing is the album covers.

What tool should I use? I note there are many but it's difficult to figure out their quality.

I am specifically looking for a batch approach - push play and let it go, taking hours or days if necessary.

Solution 1:

Taghycardia performs automated cover art downloading and embedding for large MP3 libraries.

It first looks if a cover is present in an MP3 folder itself. If yes, it embeds the locally found cover art, otherwise it performs an online search.

The program analyzes the pictures already present in the tracks for inconsistencies so the user could unify cover art across a folder or leave it as is.

Solution 2:

I chose the Album Art Downloader because this mostly suits my needs. Unfortunately it grabs files to an external file but I will have to embded them later.
